Using Red-eye Reduction Function Effectively
When you use the flash to take photos of people in low
light conditions, their eyes sometimes glow red in the
photograph. This is referred to as the red-eye effect and
is caused by the light of the flash being reflected off the
retina of the eye.
When the red-eye reduction operates, the red-eye
reduction lamp lights for approximately 1 second before
the flash fires. This causes the subject’s pupils to
contract, minimizing the risk of red-eye.
